Step Inside the Dome

Take a 360-degree virtual tour to see how our portable planetarium transforms any space into a limitless learning environment.

A 360 Tour of the Dome and Three Sample Experiences

Pictured here is a 4 meter dome (available in 4, 5, 6, and 7 meters). While this virtual tour uses high-resolution 360-degree photography to give you a realistic sense of the dome's size and setup, the actual Starlab experience is far from static. Once you step inside a real Starlab, the curriculum comes to life as fully interactive, motion-rich videos. Our projection system surrounds your students with dynamic, moving simulations, allowing you to fly through the solar system, track weather patterns, or watch tectonic plates shift before your eyes.
